So Sweet Lyrics
We're back there and the heartbreak came
Yeah it hit me pretty hard
I waved hello and goodbye
to the ghosts on the boulevard
Well oh, oh my baby
Your so sweet it makes me cry
well oh, oh my baby
your so sweet it makes me cry
Your so sweet, your so sweet
your so sweet, i wanna cry
la,la,la,la,la
la,la,la,la,la
la,la,la,la,la,
la,la,la,la,la
well i dealt with the dog face hunny
just try to sympathize
well he turned and looked at me
with his cold debaler, red, dry clean eyes
oh, oh my baby
your so sweet it makes me cry
well oh, oh my baby
your so sweet it makes me cry
your so sweet, your so sweet
your so sweet, i wanna cry
la,la,la,la,la
la,la,la,la,la
la,la,la,la,la

I is leavin
check it out
not coming back
the downtown trains
are teamin
screamin
all down the track
There is a terrible taste
always torn from the chemicals
he's gonna split his blood
all over the whole wide world
your so sweet, your so sweet
your so sweet, i wanna cry
la,la,la,la,la

Your so sweet it makes me cry
well oh, oh my baby

just try to sympathize
well he turned and looked at me

wrong lyrics, these are for 'popular mechanics for lovers' by beulah.
Sexiest song ever, I think it's the way he sings it. His name is spelled Johnathan though so somebody outta change that.
some of the lyrics are incorrect i think..
shouldnt it be -
Well back there when the heartbreak came Yeah it hit me pretty hard I waved hello and goodbye to the ghosts on the boulevard

your former lover is leaving check him out not coming back
the downtown trains have taken his screaming all down the track
There is a terrible taste on his tounge from the chemicals he's gonna split his blood all over the dull white walls
you´re so sweet, you´re so sweet you´re so sweet, i wanna cry
la,la,la,la,la la,la,la,la,la la,la,la,la,la la,la,la,la,la
and more la´s
or am i hearing it wrong? please let me know, it is frustrating me..
this is one of my favourite songs and i still cannot fully work out its meaning.my best bet is that its meaning is a lot darker than a standard love song. something to do with someone being supposedly "so sweet"but having this capacity to completely and permanently psychologically mess up people they have relationships with. he wants to cry and the "former lover" committed suicide. this may be complete bull but its the way i understand it.
Actually, i think the lyrics are
We're back there and the heartbreak came Yeah it hit me pretty hard I waved hello and goodbye to the ghosts on the boulevard
Well oh, oh my baby You're so sweet it makes me cry well oh, oh my baby you're so sweet it makes me cry
You're so sweet, you're so sweet you're so sweet, I wanna cry
la,la,la,la,la la,la,la,la,la
la,la,la,la,la, la,la,la,la,la
well I dealt with the dope fiends hunny just trying to sympathize well he turned and looked at me with his cold, dead, blood-red, drag queen eyes
oh, oh my baby you're so sweet it makes me cry well oh, oh my baby you're so sweet it makes me cry
you're so sweet, you're so sweet you're so sweet, I wanna cry
la,la,la,la,la la,la,la,la,la
la,la,la,la,la la,la,la,la,la
your former lover is leaving checkin' out not coming back
the downtown trains have taken him screaming all down the track
There is a terrible taste on his tongue from the chemicals he's gonna spit his blood all over the dope white walls
you're so sweet, you're so sweet you're so sweet, i wanna cry
la,la,la,la,la la,la,la,la,la la,la,la,la,la la,la,la,la,la
la,la,la,la,la la,la,la,la,la la,la,la,
la,la,la,la,la la,la,la,la,la
I think he's talking to girl, who he loves but she's still part of her druggie ex-boyfriend's life and he used to be part of that crowd and he's tried to help the guy too but its no use. I think he is trying to help her see that the druggie guy is too far gone, that no one can help him, and he's in so deep that he won't come out, his addiction is going to kill him. and as much as she wants to think otherwise, or give the guy a sexond chance, she'll just keep getting hurt. i think the "you're so sweet i wanna cry" is him talking about how she's put up with so much and he loves how caring she is but it makes him want to cry because he knows its hurting her to keep trying to help her former lover.
im horrible at this stuff, but thats kind of what i got out of it.
This is a great song, one of the best from the OC soundtracks.
I took it as his relationship with drugs and possibly a girl that influences him away from drugs.
